Greetings Chargers!
It's hard to believe this is the last week of the school year, and my last blog! Your child has learned so much- from food groups to deltoids to locomotor skills- it's been a strong year of learning. It's been a wonderful privilege to coach Arete's youngest students the past two years. This summer I will move to Michigan with my husband and dog, Kazu. Although my employment is undetermined at the moment, I am sure I will continue to share my love of learning and passion for being healthy and active with families in my new community. I want to thank all the students and families for your support. I will miss you all!
All the best,
Coach Steinmann :)

Dance
Greetings Chargers!
Turn up the music, it's time to dance! During this unit K-1 students will learn to follow steps to a teach led dance like the "Mexican Hat Dance" and follow basic square dance calls. We will even enjoy marching to the beat of "Stars and Stripes Forever" and moving like bees to "Flight of the Bumblebee."
